"While law school prepared me well for drafting legal documents and writing complicated briefs, it did not provide me with a career for which I had passion. Serving as a prosecutor in the Bronx County District Attorney's Office, I saw first hand the tragic results of our city's failing educational system. I saw the widening achievement gap and I became passionate about closing it. I knew that my talents could be best employed by helping New York City's youth reach their full potential."

"Other specialized subjects I have experience tutoring are Modern Greek, having lived in Greece for a portion of my life, and English reading and writing and speech as a second language. In terms of teaching methods and style, each tutor has their own unique approach to establishing a productive and cooperative relationship with their student, to best assist them in their academic work, identify their short comings or points of weakness, and guide them toward improvement. Along with standard teaching practices, I believe strongly in communication, and allowing the student to show me how he best interacts with the material, and what ...

" To me, it is very important for a tutor to work with the student until the student can complete every problem on their own. This is my tutoring philosophy and I have applied it successfully for over a year of private tutoring. I have also worked extensively with students for whom English can be an obstacle: both in Italy teaching English, and here teaching math to immigrant children. I look forward to the opportunity to bring understanding to as many students as I can.."

"in Neurobiology from the University of Texas at Austin, where I put myself through four years of schooling as an independent student, the most important lesson that I’ve learned in college was that in order to truly do better in school, and in life as a whole, I have to want to succeed, and I have to surround myself with people who feel the same way. My greatest successes academically came from professors and teaching assistants who truly wanted me to succeed, not because of the paycheck that came with my success, but because they cared about me as a student. That “connected” mentality sets me apart from commonplace tutors, and my personality ...

Therefore, as a tutor, I hope to have an impact on my students lives. My tutoring method follows what I call the 4 E for success. EMPOWERMENT: Encourage students through the process of personal development planning to integrate academic learning with life and everyday ...
